I’d go with caddy. With a domain you get Cerys renewed for you without having to think. It’s what I do for my blog, and the config is very simple too.

Last time I checked there was something in there for search... Even so you could base it on activitypub I suspect. It would need to be extended for sure to implement the sorts of things believe would be required.

You could get people creating indexes with love such as your own. marginalia could become the de-facto index for long form content. However you probably arent that interested in running the best pokemon website, so someone else could do tha

That's probably the easiest way I know to get good content into a search engine. Annoyingly however it does not contain all the content available.

It can be very simple to setup. Think single binary to run, or lambda to deploy (yes this is possible) with the URL back to it. I imagine a binary, with a simple Admin UI allowing you to crawl some domains recursively would be enough to ind

Searx is half of it where it calls out to other searches but does not provide its own index as far as I can see. It also does not remix the results.

I’d rather see them publish a federated search of their own content.

I have written this before but I’ll put it here again. What I would like to see is a federated search engine. Based on activitypub that works like mastodon. Don’t like the results from one source? Just remove them from your sources, or lowe

Can confirm. I have previously done work for a broadcaster and they have packages ready to go for most older famous people. If not a package a collection of media ready to be cut into one.

Yes. I use it as a replacement for sphinx when it went closed. Very impressed with the documentation, the support on slack. It’s much faster than the last version of sphinx and more stable for me. This is searching over 300 million document

Glad to see this on the front page. One of those posts I reread every now and then. Better yet it’s written by Anna Patterson, who in addition to the mentioned searches at the bottom wrote chunks of Cuil (interesting even if it failed) and

Surprised to see 2 of my blog posts on there. Both about building search engines. Oddly missing the posts that I would consider a lot better about the subject. Rather flattering though.

Sourcegraph wisely chased the enterprise market, so use it to index your private repositories. Plus it can other things such as finding all definitions and modifying them across multiple repositories. They don’t really exist in the same spa

Never even considered that. Although as an Australian it’s not even close.

Alas my poor entry into the ring https://bonzamate.com.au is missing. It is Australia specific though which might explain that. It is running its own index though, so might be interesting to some.

100% you can use it even in Germany. I was more pointing out that for some people contributing to public domain software or any work is problematic.

No. Explicitly licensing things is fine as you still retain copyright, but are allowing others to use and modify.

In another comment, but my understanding is that you cannot revoke your copyright over anything you create, but can make it free for use by others. Hence you must licence appropriately.

I am not a lawyer but my understanding is that copyright is considered a human right, hence being non revokable for citizens in Australia and Germany. Hence you must explicitly licence to allow reuse. It's why personally if I want some

The thing I always liked about linq was it’s lazy evaluation. You could write simple selects on your data model and join and filter in the service. Allowing unit tests that operated on the joins. I’m yet to find a better way to write crud a

Although that affidavit is still a problem for some. Both German and Australian citizens cannot revoke their human rights and as such cannot put things into public domain. Hence cannot ever contribute to sqlite. This may be seen as advantag

Same boat here. I ended up finding gron https://github.com/tomnomnom/gron which resolved that issue for me. Now I don't have to look up how to use jq each time I want to quickly find something in some JSON.

Its activity pub so no? Assuming they have not blocked either other you should just follow across the peers.
